in thread Image::Magick and colors

you're correct. there's no immediately analogous Settable attribute listed there, but further down on the page ( underneath the table of Gettable attribs ) there is this little note:
GetAttribute() is an alias for method Get().

Most of the attributes listed above have an analog in convert. See the documentation for a more detailed description of these attributes.

which leads me to believe there *is* a way ... but convert is the command-line util ...

i'm *not* relishing reducing the color depth by dealing with the color indices ...

    I'd say you should try contacting the maintainers of ImageMagick (not the Perl module) and find out if they'll divulge the secret of convert's color-reduction.
